Kerry's Disloyal Nicaraguan Journey - MUST READ
Insight Magazine ^ | May 17, 2004 | J. Michael Waller

Posted on 09/02/2004 7:34:05 AM PDT by christie

In his first major foreign-policy action as a U.S. senator nearly 20 years ago, John Kerry accused the United States of "funding terrorism." Fresh from a trip to the Far East, Kerry made his sensational allegation in Washington before flying to Nicaragua, then in the grip of a Marxist-Leninist junta, to coauthor a propagandistic peace proposal designed to disarm the U.S.-backed forces fighting to oust the Soviet-backed Sandinista regime.

Barely three months after being sworn as a senator, Kerry made his mark, and he made it big, as one of the leading opponents of President Ronald Reagan's effort to defeat Soviet-sponsored revolutionaries in the American hemisphere. The junior senator stopped at nothing: working with the nation's sworn ideological enemies, making damaging, distorted and often baseless allegations about U.S. covert operations, accusing his own government of sponsoring terrorism, and even damaging an FBI operation against a Colombian cocaine cartel.

There is not a possibility of anyone indicting Kerry right in the middle of a presidential campaign. Ashcroft and Cheney have worked with Kerry and probably know more about how this guy works than we do.

We are much better off spreading the word and getting out the vote for Bush. Email the John F. Kerry Timeline to your friends, put it on your blogs, send me additions.

BTW, the timeline is already listed on dozens of blogs, which is great.

Thanks for the ping! Following these actions in May 1986 Kerry was placed under FBI surveillance to determine whether he was being assisted by Nicaraguan intelligence agents. The book I'm getting this from cites as a source a "Boston Globe" article of March 24, 1988, if anyone wants to dig that up and post it.

Look at the expression on Harkin's face...it looks like at any minute he was going to jump on Ortega's leg and start humping it.

Disgusting asshat. I am ashamed he is from my home state.

I don't think he just happens to be commie. I think he was raised a commie and was fashioned by them from a young age to be a Senator and/or President. They have molded him, protected him and promoted him. There are many commie infiltrators out there too.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.), who was also at loggerheads with the administration over Central America, took the unusual step April 23 of rebuking his colleagues and accusing Kerry and Harkin of breaking the law and "transgressing" against the Constitution by holding unauthorized negotiations with a foreign leader.

FYI ping to Secret Agent man

I heard just a fleeting mention tonight about a statement Kerry supposedly made in the '80's. He supposedly said "If Boston is attacked with nuclear missiles, I don't want us to retaliate." He allegedly got some sort of resolution passed to that effect.

Anybody got knowledge of anything like this?

He was raised a commie. I have no idea who was molding him as such, but his father was a true believer. Go to my John F. Kerry Timeline and click on the link for Richard Kerry. It links to a great essay written by fedora. Long history of Richard Kerry's communist associations.

"If Boston is attacked with nuclear missiles, I don't want us to retaliate."

Gee, I'll sleep better at night.

Looking at Kerry as a whole is frightening. He's been allowed to get away with fraud, treason, inciting riots, negotiating with the enemy numerous times, possibly bribing informants, interfering with FBI investigations . . . and living off of wealthy women. Did nothing in the Senate but interfere with national security. The guy is scum and runs around playing hero.
